Begun after the Second World War, Celine is the brainchild of a woman determined to bring the same quality her children's shoes were known for to women's clothing and accessories. When the time was right, she successfully expanded the range of leather goods to ready-to-wear clothes for women who appreciated quality and luxury. By the fifties, Celine was a success, and today has boutiques all over the world.



The Web site is easy to navigate and elegant to behold as each page opens with a Celine logo. You can view their myriad collections for different Celine lines as well as read about the history of the company through the decades, from its inception in the forties to its current standing. The site also features a FAQ's section, which is very helpful and answers just about any question you can imagine, including detailed origins of their exotic animal skins, which come from around the world and are used according to legal guidelines.

One of the most distinctive features of the Celine site is that it allows an inside glimpse into the creative process through production of the distinctively Parisian inspired lines of luxury goods.

Celine is now part of the Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton (LVMH) luxury goods conglomerate and maintains the original Celine vision along with the quality LVMH companies are renowned for.
